### 2.11. SNMPv2 Private Management Communication

A SNMPv2 private management communication is a SNMPv2 authenticated management communication (see Section 2.10) that is (possibly) protected from disclosure. A private management communication is represented by an ASN.1 value with the following syntax:

            SnmpPrivMsg ::= [1] IMPLICIT SEQUENCE {
              privDst
                 OBJECT IDENTIFIER,
              privData
                 [1] IMPLICIT OCTET STRING
            }

For each SnmpPrivMsg value that represents a SNMPv2 private management communication, the following statements are true:

- Its privDst component is called the privacy destination and identifies the SNMPv2 party to which the communication is directed.

- Its privData component is called the privacy data and represents the (possibly encrypted) serialization (according to the conventions of [5]) of a SNMPv2 authenticated management communication (see Section 2.10).
